JOHN MUIR'S AUGUST HEAD
John Muir's queer and sundry quotations and exclamations shine through pane after pane of Yosemite Valley's buildings. Less a ghost and more of a sacred mascot, his bearded visage seems to hang down from every shaggy tree and to impose itself in the crinkled cliff-shadows on every side of this immense religious fosse into which tourists pour as amply as blood or wine. How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountain! I never saw a discontented tree. The mountains are calling, and I must go.
